IU Physicians Take Top Honors In America's Top Doctors
INDIANAPOLIS- Thirty-five Indiana University School of Medicine physicians
are among those listed in the 2003 issue of America's Top Doctors.
The popular publication recognizes a total of 47 Indiana physicians, 75
percent of whom are faculty at the state's only medical school.
IU School of Medicine faculty practice at the James Whitcomb Riley Hospital
for Children, Indiana University Hospital, the Richard L. Roudebush Veteran's
Administration Hospital, Wishard Memorial Hospital and at clinics in various
locations in central Indiana.
America's Top Doctors published by Castle Connolly Medical Ltd,
is a recognized source for finding the nation's top specialists. The list
of physicians is generated based on nominations by their peers, and the
physicians listed are included only after extensive surveys have been
conducted.
America's Top Doctors focuses only on the top 1 percent of specialists
and sub-specialists across the United States. Less than 1 percent of the
hospitals in the United States have more than one doctor listed in the
guide.
"Indiana has thousands of top-notch physicians so we are honored
that so many of the School of Medicine faculty have been recommended by
their colleagues and peers," says D. Craig Brater, MD, dean of the
IU School of Medicine. "Nearly 50 percent of Indiana's physicians
are trained by IU faculty, so the medical knowledge recognized by American's
Top Doctors has been shared with other outstanding physicians throughout
the state."
